Hmmm, no. They look new on the market. No references to them anywhere.

 

Maybe it is CCH attempting to rebrand themselves

[nkane]

I've never seen such bad grammar.

 

If they can't QA their website, what makes you think they'll QA their cams?

[mkporwit]

And a crucial little bit from their website:

"Working on CE and UIAA certification."

 

No thanks, I'll wait...

if you want to see something hilarious... google gear4rocks

 

not CE certified but certified by the Ukraine Government testing facility called "STANDART". looks good enough to me. i especially like the machine nuts that hold the cams together.

Ah yes, the same guys that make plastic nuts

 

[Clarence]

Haha, that set of plastic nuts actually weighs about 20g more than a set of BD stoppers!

[wdietsch]

their grammar makes me think they are not a US Company, just an importer with an address/office in SoCal

 

"Diagram 5 : GS CMAS require having large round support to replacement on the horizontal cracks."

[RuMR]

they aren't...they are ukranian...

[mkporwit]

U.S. Rock Gear is a Ukrainian outfit as well? Or are you referring to gear4rocks?

[purplesage]

They are copies of "real" cams made in China and being sold by scammers attempting to cash in on the lucrative US market of too many fools with too much money.

Interesting... where'd you find that tidbit?

And I guess rc.com is having the same debate... and coming to the same conclusions.
